The Smartest Way to Handle Your Air Conditioner — IR AC Controller

Imagine you are attending an entrepreneur-connect program to enhance your network and grow your business. Suddenly you get a hunch that the AC in your cabin might still be running. You lose your focus and wait for the lunch break to call back at the office and ask for a quick check.

A second forgetful instance in this month! Your monthly electricity bill may shoot up now and derail your budget.

According to our analysis, over 7M AC units were sold in FY2020 with a projected CAGR of 15-18%. 90% of these ACs are remote controlled and are prone to power wastage because of dependency on manual intervention. A responsibility to switch off via remote that often ends up in forgetfulness!

Power Wastage in Remote Controlled ACs

Commercial buildings like offices, warehouses, banks, etc., are susceptible to energy wastage when these ACs are left running at low temperature with no human occupants. 10 units of 2-ton ACs, if misused for 1.5 hours daily, can dent your monthly budget by ₹4,400.

Albeit a tiny fraction, your unintentional forgetfulness still contributes to energy wastage. Such minor misses not only account for 20-30% of extra electricity expenses but also wear down your cooling system’s life and demand more maintenance.

The answer to fix this problem is using an IR AC controller for your air conditioner.

What is an IR AC Controller?

An IR AC controller is a device that controls your AC via infrared and sends signals to turn your AC on or off. This device comes with motion sensors that detect human presence. A technology to marvel at because of its simplicity in usage and convenience.

Whether you have a split AC, a top-notch cassette AC, or an aging window AC, the device will work with any of them. The only requirement is to have a remote, which helps with the initial set-up of the controller.

What Problems an IR AC Controller Solves with an AC?

These controllers relieve you from the hassles of switching off your AC every time you step out of your cabin. But here are some more benefits a high-end infrared air conditioner controller can offer:

• Cost-saving because of low maintenance.

• User-friendly design, far better than the confusing array of buttons of your remote.

• Troubleshooting guidance with quick customer care support.

How Honeywell’s Infrared AC Controller Makes Your AC Smart?

Honeywell has designed an IR AC controller, which senses a motion with high precision. Based on this, the smart AC controller turns the AC on or off, giving you the best cooling experience. This device removes your dependency on remotes for controlling the AC.

How does Honeywell’s IR AC Controller work?

This stand-alone device has motion sensors that sense a motion in a room and based on that, it turns the unit on or off. Mounted 5-7 feet high on the wall, this unit sends signals directly to the AC unit.

But what if you go out of the cabin and come back in 5 minutes after a quick coffee break? In such a short period, frequently switching the AC unit on and off can lead to unnecessary wear and tear. Just set a delay timer to postpone the on and off functionality and enjoy your coffee breaks.

Here are some significant benefits you get if you bring this device onboard:

• Cut approx. 30-40% from your AC bill by reducing electricity wastage and, thus, carbon footprints.

• Universal - use it with major AC brands, having a remote control.

• Set timer to define motion-sensing windows.

• Control an AC within the vicinity of 15 feet.

• Reduce the maintenance cost by limiting the usage as per needs.

• Wall mountable and battery operated with no messy wires.

• 2 years battery life.

• 1 year device warranty with a replacement option.

• Just plug and play after a quick and easy installation.

• Sleek and beautiful design.
